In my line of work we HAVE to work on PCs. That being said, we have other devices that are by Apple and we like to have the streamlined look of that brand. Enter this monitor stand. We knew we wanted something that wasn't black or white, and if it was to be silver, it needed to look "minimal". This was the closest thing that fit that bill. Next, we needed something that support a VESA mount for my PC monitor. The instructions and accessories that come with this monitor stand allow you to mount this for a PC monitor and also imac monitor. This review is only for the PC monitor. I am an average sized person who is probably on the weaker spectrum of things. I also am not a techy. However, I'm matter of fact and this thing took me oh maybe 10 minutes to setup from unboxing to putting my monitor on it. It was super easy and sturdy. Here are my tips:
When assembling the plate, steady the bar against the floor and wedge between your knees. Have the "Bottom of the plate - the side with four etched circles", face up towards you, go on top of the bar. Try to sit at a chair and give yourself a 90 degree stance. Next, get your allen wrench ready and get the four screws in. The holes are really easy to line up. Next, peel back the cushion mount pads and line up with the etched circles.
Place the plate with bar on your desk. put the adjustable stop and the plate per the instructions. You can just loosen or tighten the screw by hand.
Next, get your monitor and screw in the plate. Note you will need to use the same allen wrench to "loosen" the ball thingy so you position it according to the picture attached here. It utilizes four thumb screws which you literally screw in with your fingers.
Next, you slide it over the top of the bar and it should stop at where you have placed the adjustable stop. Et Voila! You are done.
Note: The plate supports the weight of the monitor if you don't do anything strange. Think of the monitor as a cantilever. You don't want to over pivot the angle of the monitor and expect miracles, meaning the plate can only sit still if the monitor is in a reasonable position and supported on a sturdy surface. It CAN torque if you don't support it properly your monitor is too far angled to one side.
